Even though several months have passed in 2022, the race to recreate this year’s most timeless bridal looks is still very much on. If you’re a bride - or a bridal makeup artist - who likes to stay on top of the newest trends, here’s a rundown of the most popular bridal makeup looks of the year and how to master each one.

1. Strobing Bridal Makeup Look

“The strobing technique is all about using light to accentuate your best features, and it’s a great way to achieve a natural-looking makeup look,” says one top bridal makeup artist. “Strobing creme also helps enhance every skin tone,” she adds. To master it, start with a luminous primer all over your face, then use a liquid highlighter on your cheekbones, brow bones, and nose bridge. Finish by setting your makeup with a translucent powder so it lasts all day long.

2. Makeup in Pink Tones

This look is perfect for a spring or summer bride. Start by applying a sheer pink lipstick all over your lips. Use a light pink eyeshadow on the lid and blend it into the crease, then add a pink blush to the apples of your cheeks and blend it up toward your temples. Finish with a white eyeliner pencil along the inner rim of your lower lash line to brighten your eyes.

3. Dewy Skin With Fuller Eyebrows

This combination is a great way to achieve a natural, fresh-looking makeup look. Start with a hydrating primer all over your face, then use a foundation that matches your skin tone and build it up wherever you need more coverage. Once you’ve reached the coverage you want, apply a setting powder to your T-zone to control shine. For the eyebrows, use a brow pencil or eyebrow powder to fill in sparse areas, then brush through with a spoolie brush to soften the look.

4. No-Makeup Look With Glossy Lips

Glossy lips are back in trend, and they look absolutely gorgeous. Make sure your lips are well hydrated if you want to achieve this look - apply a lip balm, then top it off with a clear or tinted lip gloss. This trend is perfect for summer weddings.

5. Bronze Complexion

Use a bronzer or self-tanner to give your skin a sun-kissed glow, then add a touch of shimmer with a highlighter. A bronzed complexion is always in style, but it’s especially trendy for 2022.

6. Passionate Red Lips

Red lips never go out of style, and they’re trending again this year. If you want to make a statement on your big day, go for a bold red lip - just keep the rest of your makeup relatively simple so nothing competes with it.

7. Flushed Cheeks

Flushed cheeks look natural and romantic. Use a cream or liquid blush and blend it well into your skin to achieve this look - you can even use your fingers to apply it for a softer, more natural-looking finish.
